Top Tech: Save £400 on a Samsung Galaxy tablet with shopping expert's deal stack method

The weather’s really heating up, and so are the deals, as Amazon has dropped a handful of unmissable bank holiday tech deals. It seems that May is all about Samsung, as we’ve spotted several ways for shoppers to cut hundreds off the price of Galaxy tablets for any budget.

Amazon is currently offering a selection of whopping discounts and half price deals, including £400 off this Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra. This is Samsung’s most powerful and premium tablet, so it’s no surprise it usually comes with an equally premium price tag.

Picking up one of these gadgets would normally set you back £1,199, but Amazon is offering it for £799 with a rare deal stacking method. All shoppers need to do to get the discount is check a tickbox underneath the price on the Amazon page, which applies a £200 coupon on top of an existing £200 discount – a whopping total saving of £400.

This means Amazon is the cheapest place to buy the Tab S10 Ultra compared to Samsung, Argos and Very, which all offer the tablet for £999. Amazon has confirmed the deal is only valid until May 27 or ‘while stocks last’.

It’s not cheap, but the Tab S10 Ultra packs a punch with its 14.6” AMOLED 2X display, a 13MP rear camera, an anti-reflection screen and a bevy of AI features. All this is powered by a long-lasting battery that can run for up to 16 hours and boasts a 13MP rear camera and 12MP front camera.

However, even with £400, this tablet still sports a heavy price tag, but Amazon has also cut the price of some of Samsung’s more affordable models for those watching their pennies. At the other end of the spectrum is the Galaxy Tab A9, which is more than half price.

This is reduced from £169 to £81.71, which is the cheapest price ever offered for the tablet, according to price tracker camelcamelcamel. With such a price difference, this model doesn’t come close to the Tab S10 Ultra, but it’s ideal for those who simply want to browse the web or stream their favourite TV series without breaking the bank.

It features an 8.7” display and motion will appear smooth and fluid thanks to its high screen refresh rate. There are also four Dolby Atmos speakers and 10-hour battery life depending on usage.

Those looking to go slightly bigger may want to opt for the Galaxy Tab A9+, as it features a larger 11” display. However, it’s worth heading over to Samsung, where the same device is currently on sale for £159 compared to Amazon’s £175.44 asking price.

To throw another option into the works, Sky Mobile lets shoppers spread the cost of each Samsung tablet, including the Galaxy Tab A9 for £3, the Tab A9+ for £7 or the Tab S10 Ultra for £29. It’s worth noting that, as these come on 48-month contracts, customers will end up paying more than if buying outright, but it’s an ideal option for those looking to avoid splashing their cash all at once.

Also, the monthly prices quoted are for the devices themselves, so shoppers also have to take out a Sky data plan, which ranges from £0 for 100MB to £29 for unlimited. There are some things to sweeten the deal though, as Sky lets members upgrade to a new device after 36 months at no extra cost and is throwing in a free Samsung AI Book Cover Keyboard worth £339 with the Tab S10 Ultra.

The Galaxy Tab S10 Ultra has achieved an impressive 4.8-star rating from 117 Samsung customers – 107 of which left glowing five-star reviews. One said: “Absolutely superb.

“A big, beautiful screen, super fast, amazing multitasking. An absolute powerhouse and my new laptop replacement. The pen is fantastic and even recognises my appalling handwriting. The size isn’t for everyone but I adore it. It’s not too heavy and with great build quality. Sure, it’s pricey, but it'll last for years.”

Another said: “Fantastic build quality. Screen quality is one of the best I have used. Really fast moving between apps. AI features are fantastic, a great tablet for pleasure and business.”

A third said: “This is by far the most powerful, easy to use, aesthetically pleasing tablet on the market. Mainly use it for films on my travels and it is flawless. Everything is responsive on this tablet and the screen is as bright as you would expect. This is simply the best tablet ever made.”

However, despite their five-star review, the same buyer noted a potential downside, adding: “The only downside is, as this is such a large tablet it can get a bit heavy.”
